text: Arts/Life Arts and culture Before Admin Assistants, There Were Secretaries By editor • Apr 9, 2012 Transcript MICHEL MARTIN, HOST: Are you a fan of "Mad Men" or very much not? How you feel about the hit show on the AMC cable channel about a 1960s advertising agency may have something to do with how you feel about its depiction of the time when secretaries were not administrative assistants, personal assistants or executive assistants. No, they were secretaries - and they were not to forget that. Here's a clip from "Mad Men" season one, when Joan, a senior secretary, gives advice to a new hire on her first day. (SOUNDBITE OF TELEVISION SHOW, "MAD MEN") New Yorker Offers A Poem Burning With Spice By editor • Apr 9, 2012 As part of Tell Me More's series for National Poetry Month, host Michel Martin shares a poetic tweet by Laura Barkat of the website TSPoetry.com. Listeners are invited to tweet original poems of 140 characters and less to #TMMPoetry. 'When God Talks Back' To The Evangelical Community By editor • Apr 9, 2012 While attending services and small group meetings at The Vineyard, an evangelical church with 600 branches across the country, anthropologist T.M. Luhrmann noticed that several members of the congregation said God had repeatedly spoken to them and that they had heard what God wanted them to do. In When God Talks Back, which is based on an anthropological study she did at The Vineyard, Luhrmann examines the personal relationships people developed with God and explores how those relationships were cemented through the practice of prayer. Cowslips To Kingcups: Finding Joy In The Garden By editor • Apr 9, 2012 Lauren Groff is the author of the new novel, Arcadia. The darkest period of my life, so far, arrived the summer I was pregnant with my eldest son. The future was growing in me with all of its terrifying unpredictability, and I found myself anxious, unable to work and woefully at sea. Simple Tweets Of Fate: Teju Cole's Condensed News By editor • Apr 9, 2012 Blaise Pascal once wrote that writing succinctly can be hard. It's something many of us aim for, yet few of us master. But if you're writing on Twitter, you have to keep it short. The Nigerian writer Teju Cole recently devoted himself to the goal of writing in brief. On his Twitter account, he crafts compact stories based on small news items, things you might overlook in the metro section of a newspaper. And with brevity, his stories gain deeper meaning. Lena Dunham's 'Girls': Still Sex, Still The City, Different Show By Linda Holmes • Apr 8, 2012 Lena Dunham's new series Girls debuts on HBO on April 15. Dunham, who got quite a bit of attention for being the star, director and writer of the 2010 indie film Tiny Furniture, fills the same three roles in this ensemble show about four young women in New York. Ignore 'The Mama's Boy Myth': Keep Your Boys Close By editor • Apr 8, 2012 There are plenty of pop culture references to the dangers of a close mother-son relationship. From the myth of Oedipus to the movie Psycho, narrative after narrative harps on the idea that mothers can damage their sons, make them weak, awkward and dependent. But for millions of men, the opposite has turned out to be true, author Kate Lombardi tells NPR's Laura Sullivan. Lombardi — a mother herself — is the author of the new book, The Mama's Boy Myth: Why Keeping Our Sons Close Makes Them Stronger. A Mix-Up At The Music Fest By Will Shortz • Apr 7, 2012 On-Air Challenge: Every answer is the name of a popular music group, past or present. You'll be given clues in which two letters in the group's name have been changed. For example, given "The Bench Boss," the answer would be "The Beach Boys," after changing the N in "Bench" to an A and the first S of "Boss" to a Y. The Beauty And Difficulty Of Poet Nikky Finney By Noah Adams • Apr 7, 2012 April is National Poetry Month, a time when bookstores proudly display those slim volumes usually hidden in the back. On display this April is the work of Kentucky poet Nikky Finney, who won the National Book Award last November for her latest collection, Head Off & Split. Finney's acceptance speech at the awards ceremony was as poetic as anything in her winning book. Finney says she worked on the speech through 39 drafts and she felt good about it, but she's still stunned by the response she's gotten. 'Calico Joe': A Would-Be Legend Rediscovered By editor • Apr 7, 2012 Joe Castle, from Calico Rock, Ark., came up to the Chicago Cubs in the summer of 1973, played in 38 games, and hit an astonishing .488, including 21 home runs. That's all he played before being struck by a pitch. Scott Simon speaks with author John Grisham about his new baseball-themed novel, Calico Joe. Comedian Rachel Dratch Plays Not My Job By editor • Apr 7, 2012 Rachel Dratch was one of the stars of Saturday Night Live from 1999 to 2006. She was hilarious, and then she left the show. What happened then? Well, she got so tired of answering that question she wrote a whole book about it, called Girl Walks Into a Bar. This month marks the 100th anniversary voyage of the Titanic, so we'll ask Dratch three questions about the James Cameron movie inspired by that historical tragedy. To Be Or Not To Be (The Pope) Is The Question By Bob Mondello • Apr 6, 2012 When the College of Cardinals gathers in the Vatican to choose a new church leader — formally the Bishop of Rome — it announces its selection with the Latin phrase "Habemus papam" ("We have a pope"). But suppose that, when a cardinal steps out onto a balcony in St. Peter's Square to utter those fateful words, the gentle soul in white sitting behind him, out of sight of the crowd, develops stage fright. Toy Companies Debut Bald Dolls For Cancer By editor • Apr 6, 2012 Barbie is best known for her curvy figure and long blond hair — but Mattel plans to produce a doll that's a dramatic departure from that classic image. This Barbie will be bald. Mattel decided to make the doll after a campaign by Jane Bingham, a survivor of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma in Philadelphia. She started a Facebook group with her friend called "Beautiful and Bald Barbie." She tells Audie Cornish, host of All Things Considered, that they wanted the toymaker to create a doll for kids who have cancer or have lost their hair for medical reasons. 100 Years Later, Titanic Lives On In Letters By Rachel Syme • Apr 6, 2012 When I hear the word "Titanic," I picture a tuxedoed Leonardo DiCaprio, waiting at the bottom of a gilded staircase while the voice of Celine Dion swells in my mind. It's all Edwardian glitz and glamour, decadence and passionate love, the kind best enjoyed in a dark theater with plenty of popcorn. And then I quickly remember that the ship sinks, and that Titanic is more than just an epic film from my youth. On April 15, a century will have passed since the ship plummeted into the icy Atlantic, and it is the tragedy we should remember, not just the mythology surrounding it. 'Damsels': A Daffy, Earnest Return For Whit Stillman By editor • Apr 6, 2012 Director Whit Stillman is 60 now, and hasn't made a film since 1998's The Last Days of Disco, but his preferred milieu is still the world of privileged young people with the luxury of taking time to figure themselves out. It's a rarefied realm, where vocabulary and self-confidence outstrip experience, and wisdom and adulthood are still to be embraced. Texan Poet Says, Spend Some Time Among The Clouds By editor • Apr 6, 2012 As part of Tell Me More's series for National Poetry Month, host Michel Martin shares a poetic tweet from storyteller and poet Anne McCrady of Henderson, Texas. Listeners are invited to tweet original poems of 140 characters or less to #TMMPoetry. Whit Stillman: An Indie Auteur Returns, Wink Intact By Ella Taylor • Apr 6, 2012 A little short of two decades ago, I served with Whit Stillman on the Dramatic Competition jury at the Sundance Film Festival, alongside actor Samuel Jackson and directors Atom Egoyan and Darnell Martin. During voting meetings, we were a fractious bunch, but otherwise we all got along great. Never had jury duty been so much fun — when I wasn't fretting about whether Stillman had seen my surly review of his 1990 first feature, Metropolitan. Lust, Lies And Empire: The Fishy Tale Behind Eating Fish On Friday By editor • Apr 6, 2012 It sounds like the plot of a Dan Brown thriller: A powerful medieval pope makes a secret pact to prop up the fishing industry that ultimately alters global economics. The result: Millions of Catholics around the world end up eating fish on Fridays as part of a religious observance. A Sublime, Impressionistic 'Deep Blue Sea' By David Edelstein • Apr 6, 2012 Terence Davies' films aim for and often achieve a state of music, the camerawork in harmony with the soundtrack, the images connected by emotion rather than narrative. Adapting Terence Rattigan's 1952 play The Deep Blue Sea, he throws out the drama's tidy structure and much of the dialogue, and shows the events through the eyes of the adulterous Lady Hester Collyer, played by Rachel Weisz. Pop Culture Happy Hour: Sex Comedies And Marshmallow Peeps By Linda Holmes • Apr 6, 2012 On this week's podcast, we decided to ruminate about teen sex comedies — in part because of spring break season, and perhaps in part because we're all surrounded by discussions of American Reunion. We chat about the ebb and flow of teen comedy in general, the ways in which Superbad was and was not influential, and the relationship between teen comedies, sex comedies, and teen sex comedies. This also leads us down a strange path about what kinds of vaguely dirty movies we did and did not have access to as kids. 'Comic-Con': A Frothy Love Letter To Nerd Culture By Scott Tobias • Apr 5, 2012 The inaugural San Diego Comic Book Convention, now more commonly known by the shorthand Comic-Con, drew around 300 comic enthusiasts for a weekend at a downtown hotel. More than 40 years later, the event now hosts upward of 120,000 attendees at the San Diego Convention Center, all gathered for a pop-cultural smorgasbord in which comic books are but a small, increasingly marginalized part. This 'American' Life: Pie, Hormones And The Endless Hunt For Happiness By editor • Apr 5, 2012 It was really too bad about the audio. Our press screening of American Reunion here in Washington was saddled with a muted soundtrack, which is unfortunate for any movie, let alone one that revolves around '90s music, loud parties and a school dance. The audience laughed louder at "I love this song!" than at any of Eugene Levy's improv. 'Surviving Progress': Taking Overdevelopment To Task By Mark Jenkins • Apr 5, 2012 Not every human advance is a snare, according to Ronald Wright, author of A Short History of Progress. But some new techniques can lead to something the Canadian author calls a "progress trap" — a development that's ultimately more harmful than helpful. 'We Have A Pope': Whoops, Maybe We Don't By Mark Jenkins • Apr 5, 2012 "God sees abilities in me I don't have," laments the protagonist of Italian writer-director Nanni Moretti's new movie. Such self-doubt is hardly novel, but Melville (Michel Piccoli) has a special stake in God's opinion of him — he's just been elected pope. 'Keyhole': Looking Through (And Into) The Past By Ian Buckwalter • Apr 5, 2012 "This kind of weather stirs me up," growls Ulysses, as he looks with caged-tiger menace out of rain-streaked windows at the strobing, manic lightning outside. "Man's weather," he adds. As embodied in the chiseled good looks of actor Jason Patric, Ulysses himself is a picture of old Hollywood masculinity, so tough and unwavering that surely only the most primal forces of nature could match him. Kerry Washington On Bringing Washington 'Scandal' To TV By Linda Holmes • Apr 5, 2012 Kerry Washington knows that her new drama, Scandal, will inevitably be compared to another drama about D.C.: The West Wing. Scandal tells Audie Cornish on today's All Things Considered that it even has Josh Malina, a West Wing cast member, for a little of what she calls "secret D.C. credibility." Self-Improver A.J. Jacobs Takes On Getting 'Healthy' By editor • Apr 5, 2012 When A.J. Jacobs got sick on a tropical vacation, his wife looked at him in his hospital bed and said, "I don't want to be a widow at 45." Jacobs was 41, bedridden with tropical pneumonia, and living with what he calls a "python-that-swallowed-a-goat body." He wasn't notably unhealthy, but he'd begun to feel some of the vulnerabilities of age, so he vowed to make himself healthier so that he could be around — and vital — for his wife and three sons. Mary J. Blige Burger King Commercial Draws Ire By editor • Apr 5, 2012 There's growing controversy over a Burger King ad featuring singer Mary J Blige. Blige apologized for the ad on Thursday, saying she didn't approve the final version. The Secret Hunt For The Mastermind Of Sept. 11 By editor • Apr 5, 2012 After the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks, there was one man the American public wanted captured: Osama bin Laden. There was also a secret hunt going on for someone else, the real mastermind of the attacks. That man was Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, and he's the focus of Josh Meyer and Terry McDermott's new book, The Hunt for KSM: Inside the Pursuit and Takedown of the Real 9/11 Mastermind, Khalid Sheikh Mohammed." Lionel Shriver's Not-So-'New Republic' By Maureen Corrigan • Apr 5, 2012 Lionel Shriver's new novel, called The New Republic, is actually an old manuscript with a star-crossed history. As Shriver explains in a prefatory note, this satire on (among other things) terrorism was finished in 1998, but, back then, publishers weren't interested. That was five years before Shriver's break-through novel, We Need to Talk About Kevin. Then, Sept. 11 happened: sincerity was in; irony was out. Publishers wouldn't touch this story that offered an ironic take on violent extremism. Pages« first ‹ previous … 369 370 371 372 373 374 375 376 377 next › last »

I have been using my new car cover every day this fall. I drive my car to work every day, and park in an open parking lot with lots of trees. It takes about 2 minutes to unpack the cover from the tote bag and put the cover on my car. The cover protects my car during the day from leaves, dust, rain etc. I've only had the cover for a few weeks but it seems to be very strong and well made.

What the VW Clean Diesel Scandal Can Teach us about MVPs
Posted by Tejus Parikh on September 24, 2015
I can easily picture the scene. A conference room filled with top executives are digesting the message from the CEO. He wants VW to be the #1 auto manufacturer in the world by 2018, which cannot be done without breaking into the hyper-competitive and well served North American market. The question for the executives is what can be done to differentiate the brand and attract customers to the showrooms.
The marketing guy hits on an idea, the American is saturated in everything except diesel vehicles, an area where VW already excels in. The engineering head expresses concerns, the American emissions standards are very strict. Meeting them would negate the performance benefits. But then he remembers one of his engineers boasting that they could tell if a test was done on the road vs in the lab based on sensor data alone. It was gamble, but a plan was quickly hatched to put in the hack to test if there was a viable market for selling diesel passenger vehicles in the USA.

Picking up from our conversation this morning on Apple's A9 SoC, the crew over at Chipworks has been working hard over the weekend to decap A9 and their first results are in. As it turns out, Chipworks has found chips fabbed by both TSMC and Samsung, which means that A9 is in fact a dual sourced part. In taking apart iPhones and decapping SoCs, Chipworks has turned up two SoCs. The first, APL0898, is a 96mm2 A9 that's fabbed by Samsung. The second SoC, APL1022, is a 104.5mm2 SoC fabbed by TSMC. And while Chipworks isn't naming the specific manufacturing processes used, based on Apple's comments on a "new transistor architecture," we're certainly looking at a form of FinFET. In which case the two chips...

Dismantling the Ivory Tower: Engaging Geographers in University–Community Partnerships
Abstract:University–community partnerships offer synergistic spaces for communities to address difficulties and universities to meet their missions. Geographers are well positioned to participate in these partnerships, owing to the discipline's integrative nature, spatial perspectives and analytic approaches, and its attention to social and environmental issues at many scales. This paper endeavours to assist geographers interested in these partnerships by illustrating three case studies of geography–community partnerships. We reflect critically on the mutual benefits from, and barriers to, these partnerships. On the basis of case studies and literature review, the paper recommends ways to enhance university–community partnerships to help dismantle the ivory tower.

I began writing erotica at a very young age, in my early teens, in my diary. Actually, I think it was earlier than my teens, but it's hard to be sure. I wrote something about sex in my diary--stories, fantasies, whatever it was--when I was quite young, and then when I got into my early teens and thought I understood more about it, I tore the pages out, and burned them. What I thought I understood at the time was that sex, fantasies, and masturbation were supposed to be bad. I think that idea lasted in my head for a very short time. I had too much ample evidence of the pleasure I had discovered in my own fantasies for me to buy into the notion that it was in any way evil.
Self-publishing that story was how Circlet Press got started, of course, and I discovered I wasn't the only writer who was writing erotic sf/f. Manuscripts started pouring in from writers, many much better known than I was, imploring me to publish them, too. Reader reaction was much the same: "Where have you been all my life?" The writers were there, the readers were there, all that was missing was a publisher in the middle. So I jumped into not only writing erotic sf/f, but editing and publishing it, too.

North Valley Hospital prepares for Ebola
TONASKET – With the arrival of Ebola Viral Disease to the United States, North Valley Hospital District is responding quickly with a mandatory education and training session for our nearly 230 member staff.

This is my first all night field recording with my tree ears microphones. The 7.5h recording is captured June 22-23, 2015 approximately at the same spot in Brøndbyskoven as last recording. Basically, I started the recorder at 10 in the evening and came back and stopped it at 6 next morning.
This forest is full of singing birds in the day, but I have often wondered what it would be like in middle of the night. I think there is something almost terrifying about a dark deserted forest in the latest hours. Here, around Midsummer, it is even said it is the time when trolls and elves are most active.
And to get a view of this, I think ears are much more effective in the night than a camera…
The recording starts at 22:20 and ends around 6:00 in the morning, and can be heard below.
Listen in Headphones. The recording volume is little low, especially during the night, so you might need to turn the volume up at that point.

Mahalo in advance!
That is generally considered competitive secret info at most dev companies. it can also be hard to count at a studio that has cross project developers. It likely varies depending on what they are working on.
Though I'd love to know as well. :)

Three games LotRO, Asheron's Call, and DDO.
My wild rough guesses
In Customer Service there are six employees. Web Support, there are three employees. Web Developers there are ten employees. Around three employees in QA.
Server Admins and network engineers there are around 100 employees.
There are six in HR.
Admin there is around 40.
That leaves around 132 developers, or an average of 44 per game. Since LoTRo is the largest, more developers work on LoTRo. let's say 82 on LoTRo and 25 each for DDO and Asheron's.
Not all developers write for the game. Some of them write code for the forums and some write for the great installation software that comes out.
There is something to be read into the numbers I wrote.
There are 3 devs total for ddo.
Two monkeys locked in a room with a DOS computer and, one zookeeper that feeds them coffee and cigarettes.
jking. Remember. I love ddo. :D
Also missing from 2010, in game GMs, sales/marketing, Accounting, and the Paiz's at the top.
After the acquisition of early 2010, I am guessing that sales/marketing and some accounting has by now been re-structured up to WB Games for the sake of efficiency.
One can only guess at what the company looks like now. I suspect, aside from some re-structuring, that it's pretty much the same. Many parent companies leave their children alone, with the focus of growing the children, and leave funds available for the children to appropriate what is needed to grow. Makes it easier to spin them off later (sell them) if they become much more valuable.
Tolero and Cordovan are part of the Community Team. GMs are sub contracted employees (usually). And the rest of the positions are, well, the rest of the positions. You will probably never hear of most of the employees.

Free Boy
Originally published 03/28/2013
Escaping Slavery in Washington Territory
Robin Lindley
When we think of the cruel legacy of slavery and the bloody Civil War that ended this vile institution, it's unlikely that images of the verdant, sparsely populated Washington Territory soon come to mind. But settlers brought the seeds of the war with them, and issues of slavery, race, secession, and civil rights divided communities and loyalties in the Pacific Northwest. Seattle public historian Dr. Lorraine McConaghy and co-author Judy Bentley uncover and detail a fascinating story of this era in Washington Territory in their new book Free Boy: A True Story of Slave and Master (University of Washington Press). Based on extensive research, they chronicle the odyssey of a young slave, Charles Mitchell, who escaped from slavery in Olympia to freedom in Victoria, Canada.

text: Being a bandleader with a rotating cast of supporting players means not having to convince other members to follow your new musical directions. On the Boggs' 2002 debut, We Are The Boggs We Are, Jason Friedman's project played spur-propelled cowpoke punk, with banjos, slide guitars and rustic percussion. Featuring Christian Obermaier (from the indie-electronic outfit Schneider TM) and Julian Gross (from noise-punk provocateurs the Liars), among others, Friedman's new crew recently released Forts, a striking departure from the O Brother aesthetic. Alternating jagged new-wave riffs and psychedelic jangles, unhurried sing-alongs and propulsive beats, Forts redefines the Boggs as a dance-folk hybrid.
